[Verse 1]
Jody girl, Jody girl
Spend your time today
Watchin' clocks spin the hours away
Jody girl, you know the world's
Goin' around all day
Thinking back to the things you used to say
Didn't he put you on a pedestal
When first you met?
Sure was some honeymoon
Ain't it hard to forget?
Whatever happened to that crazy boy
With the love light in his eyes?
Used to bring you flowers every day

[Bridge]
Now you sit here on a cloudy afternoon
Watchin' a soap opera on the TV
Your old man's workin'
And your kids are out playin'
And you ain't feelin' too free
You keep thinkin' back
Thinkin' back to high school
Those high school days
All the wild, wild, wild good times you had
All the boyfriends, boyfriends knockin' at your door

[Verse 2]
Jody girl, Jody girl
Spend your time today
Watchin' clocks spin the hours away
Jody girl, you know the world's
Goin' by all day
Thinkin' back to before you promised to stay
Didn't he put you on a pedestal
When first you met?
Sure was some honeymoon
Ain't it hard to forget?

As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
